Without joking, most likely I would watch more Lemmy.

[–] calcopiritus@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I would still be programming. Just that it would be the projects I want to do, instead of the ones my employer wants to do.

[–] Redacted@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

Streamer but in like a chill way, no subs

[–] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Do so much more with horses Video games Art

[–] Zacryon@feddit.org 2 points 2 months ago

I would become an author and write plenty of fiction, poems, short stories. I might also get into game development. And if time permits, I would even pick up on astronomy.

[–] GarboDog@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Would study and do arts and use our findings and research to help improve the world in some kind of way, even if its a little.

[–] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 2 points 2 months ago

I would walk my dog, lift weights, study foreign languages, help my community

[–] MisterNeon@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (3 children)

A podcast about the pre-columbian Americas which in all honesty would be a Hardcore History knockoff.

Knowing me, do what I normally do in my free time, but hopefully actually get projects done.

I'd have plenty of time to play games, watch my shows, listen to CDs/music, hopefully finish a project I started on Wattpad or another program, and spend time learning coding to help with my NeoCities site and some other projects I wanna work on but don't know enough to make become a realiety.

[–] NONE_dc@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Write, write until I drop dead, with a smile in my face.

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

Still work but at a reduced rate and else I would actually think about volunteering or improving my living conditions like a garden or tech at gome :)

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Probably continue to work in transpiration with special needs school kids. My job isn't so much about money to me at this point I'm deeply emotionally invested.

[–] ImmersiveMatthew@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Exactly what I am already doing. imagineering my top rated VR Theme Park and explore SE Asia and other parts of the world. Love both.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] dditty@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

I'd follow Phish in concert

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I'm into bird watching, so I'd want to travel to see new ones and what have you.

I would want to craft more.

I would read more.

I would take language lessons

I would work on that book idea

I would take classes on anything that interested me.

I would want to have a small farm, I just think it's neat.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Read a lot of books. Swim. Go for coffee anytime I could with friends. Volunteer. Sit and stare out the window at the rain. Foster parenting.

[–] meep_launcher@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

A) mental health would absolutely improve so I'd have more energy for

B) producing more shows and putting on more events. Personally I don't want to retire because I want to create a career where if I did retire I'd just do what I was doing anyway. I'm kinda doing that now but I have more BS and stress to deal with.

[–] Matriks404@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Travel, meet with friends, play video games, watch some movies.

[–] marx2k@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I'd dive fully into circuitboard electronics

[–] vin@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 months ago

Politics. Gotta ensure that utopia survives and expands

[–] dumblederp@aussie.zone 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Study more JiuJitsu and physiotherapy for poor people.

play more games learn to draw maybe pick up a new language.

[–] LordCrom@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Kung fu, charitable volunteering, and any intellectual challenge I could take on.

[–] JayGray91@piefed.social 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Sounds like it would have to be free or low cost hobby. So probably I'd go hiking, and camping while reading books and making coffee with my aeropress

Basically yurucamp. A nice cosy anime. You should watch it

If there's somehow a way in this utopia scenario to also maintain a moped like a Honda supercub or vespa, add that as well as I cruise around between hiking and camp sites

Yes I can do that right now but you know how it is what it is

[–] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I would build affordable housing.

[–] DCErik@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

Join a 3rd band, I guess.

[–] olafurp@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I'd spend more time playing guitar and chess and spend more time with my son.

[–] ocean@lemmy.selfhostcat.com 1 points 2 months ago

Also my research but with less bs

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

I'd be one of those old school naturalists and just, like, go live in a swamp for three years with one pair of clothes, a cot, a journal, and a pencil.
